[Update] This week on the PS Vita Store: Batman: Arkham Origins Blackgate, Hotline Miami, and a handful of sales

Updated on October 24th, at 11:15: Whoops. Looks like there are some new Vita games after all. We've fixed up the post with three new games.


There are some new Vita games on the store, this week.

Plus, the PSN Store has been filled to the brim with lovely discounts.

What can you expect, then? Well, that's the whole point of this weekly round-up. We can all do with a helping hand every once in a while.

Onwards and upwards.

Full-price releases

The European PSN store has Doodle Devil for £4.79, and Valhalla Knights III for £23.99. Batman: Arkham Origins Blackgate will be available from the 25th for £34.99.

The US Store, on the other hand, has just one new game - Lego Marvel Super Heroes. I've been hearing great things about the console version of this game, but whether the handheld version is any cop is anyone's guess.

If you want to get stuck in with it, you can expect to fork out $39.99 for this bad boy. Otherwise, there ain't anything new to play.

Sales, price drops, and PS Plus

There are plenty of sales this week, so get a hand ready on your wallet.

In Europe, there's a mixture of sales on PS Minis, PSP and Vita games. Hungry Giraffe, Interational Snooker, Persona, Gungnir, and Zombie Racers are all on sale, to name just a small number.

And in the US, the complete first season of The Walking Dead is discounted for everyone, and even more heavily for PS Plussers.

Oh, and if you are a US PS Plus subscriber, don't forget to grab Hotline Miami for free!

PlayStation Mobile releases

Just one new PS Mobile release this week, but it looks like a good'un.

Monster Hotel from XMPTGames sees you looking after a hotel filled with - yep, you guessed it - monsters.

You have to keep them all happy by picking them up and dragging them to the various rooms in the hotel. It costs £0.79 / $0.99.

And that's your lot for this week.
